This invention relates. 'to for automobile bodies and-furniture, and to the process of preparing the same.

The object of the invention is to provide 1 A liquid polish. of this invention includes the use of the followin materials and quantities mentioned by weig t:

Oxychloride of bismuth to l'ounce. Flake white to 1 ounce. Gum acacia varnish '1 ounce. Coloring matter (dye) ounce. Tu ntine 3 ounces. App e vinegar. 2 ounces. Lustrous oil andperfume -l 1% ounces.

Water 20-22 ounces.

' This is sufiicient for the preparation of a puart of polish, and larger quantities may be prepared by correspondingly increasing the amounts of each ingredient.

The unusual results are due 1n part to the use of the specific materialsand also in part to the fact that these materials are used to-, gether in a single liquid preparation. The oxychloride of bismuth and the flake wh te are powders which serve to provlde two different types of surface layers and preservers. The gum acacia varnish may be pre-..

pared from m acacia mixed with turpentine, linsed 011 and olive 011 as solvents and diluents. The turpentine is a quick drying solvent, and the vinegar serves to removethe old dirt from the surface treated.

non oxidizing .veg table or fish .oil .may be as the lustrous oil provided it gives a ,s'hlny and lustrous finish, and the perfume maybe provided by the material known as oil of bergamot, which is added to counteract the odors and render the polish pleasing to the smell. It has been found that a very satis- Ous material and lustrous oil is provided b the material known as brilliantine. Bri ,liantine is sold generally by pharmacists and 1s known to contain such oils and perfumes as sperm oil, sperma'ceti Wax, castor oil, olive oil, oil of bitter almonds, oil of cloves, and oil of bergamot. The odor of the sperm or the olive oil may be counteracted by the more pleasant odor of the oil of cloves or oil of bergamot. The dye, preferably a red water dye, such as the recognized Diamond Dye, is mixed with the water and this mixture then thoroughly mixed with the other ingredients. T e dye provides a quick settin coloring matter WhlC-h provides an attractive appearance for the liquid, but which does not materially affect the color of the resultant dry finish.

The combined use of the bismuth, vinegar and turpentine gives particularly advanta- 0 geous results as a combined surface layer,

cleaner, and quick drier, giving a corresponding quick, clean and lustrous finish.

The material is app-lied to the surface free from dust with the usual soft cloth and 1 thoroughly wi d off to remove the dirt -loosened there y. Then a clean piece of cloth is used to apply a shining coat to the surface thus previously cleaned,- and the shining coat is rubbed gently until the surface begins to dry and brightens, after which no more rubbing is necessary. The surface should then be permitted to dry for at least 10 minutes. L

' The resultant finish will withstand the action of soap and water, sea air and rain, and

will generally resist the action of automobile cleaning materials and greases.

I claim:

-1. A liquid polishing material consisting M of oxychloride of bismuth, flake white, gum

acacia, coloring matter, turpentine, apple vinegar, lustrous oil, and a perfume and water..

factory non-injurious combination of odor- 60 2. A liquid polishing material consisting of the following quantities by Weight of 10 Water 20 22 ounces.

3. In a liquid polishing material the combination of oxychloride of bismuth, vinegar,

and turpentine. I

4:. In a liquid polishing material the combination of 'fiake White, oxychloride of bismuth, vinegar, and a quick drying hydrocarbon solvent In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
